Since 1999 I have lived in Europe and in my life of the artist I follow a certain system of values.
It protects me from temptations and disappointments.
Participating in group exhibitions, working with art galleries, making individual exhibitions or selling paintings through the Internet I am not looking for immediate sensations and benefits from my creative work.
If all the gallery owners will say that my paintings are not worth attention, I will accept it calmly, continuing to do what I have been doing.
